INGREDIENTS
2 cups cauliflower florets (≈200g)
3 ounces chicken breast (≈85g)
1.5 ounces sharp cheddar cheese (≈42g)
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt & pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Steam the cauliflower florets until tender but still slightly crisp, about 5-7 minutes, then set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Grill or pan-sear the chicken breast until fully cooked, then shred or dice into bite-sized pieces.
In a small saucepan, gently warm the unsweetened almond milk with the yellow mustard and a pinch of garlic powder. Stir in the sharp cheddar cheese until melted and smooth to create a creamy cheese sauce.
Combine the steamed cauliflower and shredded chicken in a baking dish. Pour the cheddar sauce over the mixture, stirring gently to ensure even coverage.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Season with additional salt and pepper to taste before serving.
